HMIC.... haha I love it

this car used to be alright when the original owner had it he was on here "jadedX" but he stripped it down to almost stock and sold it for 12,000 a year or so ago

I'll bet he would cry if he could see his old FD now :squint:

i really hate to admit this. I know this kid. His ca is the biggest POS I have ever seen. He has been trying to sell it for months now. I first saw the car at Sakura and it looked okay....in the dark. My friend said he is a redneck that goes to community college.

hmmm, here is an engine shot off of anthe fd on ebay right now. I think it should be mandatory that you be a member of the fourms that way you have a clue how to modify your car.

Looks like he was trying to make a pretzel shape out of his engine bay.

I can't get over him keeping the stock IC with a single turbo setup...

it almost looks the like blow off vavle is connected to one of the greaddy intake pipes.

You have to find a pic of this kid now....we gotta see him!

hey guys, honest question here... as far as his setup being an HMIC or hot mount intercooler, could you guys please explain why and how he would have fixed that problem? Just curious so I can learn what NOT to do...

Ducting cool air from in front of the radiator instead of sucking the hot air from behind it.

hey guys show some respect

"IT TOOK 2nd in the exotic class at battle of the imports at MIR in 2005."

i'd like to see the rest of the cars at that event.
:uh:

I saw this car at imports vs. domestics this past year. It wasnt even parked with the show cars, it was parked with the rest of the people in the other lot, and trust me it is worse in person. i saw it from a far at dusk and was like "sick, an rx7" and then i got close and ran away.

I think he saw some V mount set up and tried to copy it. Except he lacked the knowledge of how V mounts work.

Easy way to fix at this point would be to change the radiator set up.

This is funny looking but is OK as long as he doesn't boost much.
I would of kept the stock IC duct though.. at this point, its pretty much useless.. I guess both of them are buddies and been sharing info between each other..

Just in case these two people might read this... IC's are useless unless you could get air to pass thru the core..

what a bunch of morons.

lol
you can see that the car was never sanded down or primered for the paint job, its MB underneath :rlaugh:

that's the funniest thing i've heard all day!!!

i hope it comes with the car cover.

if it was my car i would make use of it a lot :)

You guys are just haters, stop dissin my ride. Like how i modified the front signal lights? ^^^^ :tonque:

I didn't even notice that in the eBay pictures... granted... I saw the first one & ran...

This entire thread had me laughing my ass off. But it is a shame people are out there buying RX-7's and turning them into Civics.

I 2nd that

Wow someone give me a gun... I'm ready to just end it all now... :(

haha 7's to civics...

Cheap job yes. The rest of what you said is more or less bullshit. Unless requested no paint shop removes body trip to shoot a car. Doing so would give you a better looking paint job, absolutely. With good prep work the paint should stay on the car.

The urethane parts should have flex additive added to the paint as well.
